Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.I used Jennifer as my lawyer during my first and second surrogacy. She was very knowledgeable and helped create the perfect contract for me. She always responded quickly to any questions or concerns I had. I would definitely recommend Jennifer and will use her again if I decide to do another surrogacy.
Jennifer and her colleague Catelyn Slattery assisted us in the adoption of my stepsons. We were frankly bracing for the time, the work and expense this process would require, but both ladies were very friendly, responsive, incredibly helpful, excellent at what they do and easy to work with, so we got it all completed in good time, with no hiccups and at manageable expense. We are so grateful for their help in making our family whole. I highly recommend their services.
She was very thorough and prompt in her communications, both email and phone calls. She took the time to explain everything in the contract to me and answer my questions.
Jennifer helped us with two re-adoptions cases and another adoption issue. She is excellent! Jennifer is professional, knows the law, very kind, understanding, easy to talk to, explains everything so that we could understand things, and is very reasonably priced. We were very happy and satisfied with her services and would definitely recommend her to anyone needing an attorney for adoption or family issues.
She was very knowledgeable regarding the legal terminology in the contract I was entering into. She made to look out for my interest. She responded to all my questions very
On the day of the adoption there were several other cases presented along with ours. There was a stark contrast between the professionalism of Jennifer and the other lawyers. She knew exactly what she was doing while many of the other lawyers fumbled through the adoption case presentation. We were reassured by her experience and efficiency. Excellent adoption lawyer.
We hired Jennifer Fairfax for the adoption of our son, which we finalized last month in DC Superior Court. She was with us from the very beginning and has been, without question, excellent from the start. Over the course of year she worked with us, directing us to the organization who completed our home study and helped us to select an adoption agency (we chose one in MD). She is prompt, honest, well educated on the adoption system, and extremely organized. We highly recommend her.
The court authorized the breaking of the seal for my adoption. After numerous calls to the adoption agency with no response I talked to a private investigator who highly recommended Jennifer Fairfax. Living in Chicago and not knowledgeable about the whole process Jennifer spent time explaining the process, answering my questions, filed a notice of appearance and went to court for me. She called, wrote the agency. Turns out the agency closed my file because of their large caseload. I believe without Jennifer I would not have found my wonderful birth family my mom and half sibling. She is extremely knowledgeable, available to answer all questions and caring. I am very fortunate that Jennifer was my advocate. I highly recommend Jennifer Fairfax.
Jennifer Fairfax is well versed in her area of expertise, adoptions. She provided very clear instructions and expectations to me. In addition, she was very quick in communication responses and open to my calls and emails at any time.
Jennifer was great! We used her for an interstate gestational surrogacy agreement, and she made the entire process shockingly smooth and simple. When a hospital filing error was made at the last minute, she was able to make the right calls to get it fixed immediately. In addition to her legal expertise and connections, she completely understood the emotional side of our needs, as well, and provided us all of the reassurance and support we could ever need. I would absolutely recommend her!!!
